The biggest lie of the century
To contend that their history dates back to the times of the Macedonian dynasty, Skopjan Slavs are committing historical frauds. History records their advent in that region many centuries after Christ: never before. To overcome this historical revelation they further contend that their non-Slavic Macedonian nation had been there and that in the course of history they had lost their being, somehow they were Slavicised and lately re-emerged Macedonian contenders. But history does not hold any other Homeric account of any Odyssey of Skopjo-Macedonians -- a likely fairytale. On the contrary, there are Hellenic evidences in every stage of history.
